What is a benefit of using an enclosure during FDM printing?

The use of an enclosure during Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) printing primarily aids in controlling the temperature around the print area, which is crucial for several aspects of the printing process. When the temperature is regulated, it helps maintain a consistent thermal environment, reducing the risk of warping and ensuring better adhesion of the printed layers to each other and the build platform. Proper adhesion is vital to prevent issues such as delamination and to achieve smoother, more accurate prints.

In addition to thermal control, an enclosure can also protect the print from drafts or other environmental factors that might disrupt the printing process, further enhancing print quality. While other options relate to aspects of the printing methodology, they do not directly connect to the purpose of an enclosure. Thus, controlling the temperature for better adhesion stands out as the primary benefit of using an enclosure in FDM printing.
